Dear Parents/Guardians,

Well done to all the boys and girls on a very busy week up here. We had Erasmus visitors, we had a blitz in Wexford Park, we had rounders, we had GAA, we had lots and lots of activities.

For the weeks ahead some reminders:

Bannow/Rathangan Show - Art work

This year, we are leaving it up to children to bring in any art item they wish to enter themselves rather than all classes. If your child has a piece of Art that they have done at home or in school, they should bring it in by Monday June 8th and we will categorise them and leave them in Clongeen Hall on Weds. June 10th.

Incoming Junior Infants' Meeting

This will be held at 7pm on Weds. June 10th in the school. That morning at 10am the pupils will visit from their various playschools. We usually line the main path and welcome them all to our school.

Ballymitty's Got Talent

This will be held next Thurs. May 28th. Each class gets to perform in front of the Student Council voting committee. We ask that parents help the younger children to prepare for their pieces/songs/dances etc. They can't be any longer than 3 mins.

Summer School Tours

Please see today's article about the tours and the permission slip. Aladdin links will be sent to pay for those trips. Here is the article:: https://ballymittyns.ie/News/Summer-School-Tours/1036996/Index.html
